Business Before, During, After Hours

What is Business Before, During or After Hours?

Business Before, During or After Hours is the premier networking event for business professionals. This program gives individuals the opportunity to discuss and share ideas while learning about other local businesses. It is a relationship-building experience held in a relaxed setting that benefits you and your company through added contacts and resources. This networking event for professionals is held monthly at various locations throughout the Grand Strand area. All investor businesses and their employees are invited to this free monthly gathering.

Can my business host a Business Before, During or After Hours?

Business Before, During or After Hours events are held at various chamber business locations with anywhere from 150-300 attendees. Food and beverages are provided by the sponsor business along with door prizes. In return, you receive free promotion in our monthly newsletter, Grand Strander, an e-postcard invitation, featuring your logo, is emailed to all stakeholders, plus the event is promoted on our website.

If your facility is too small to host one of these events, consider being a co-host. You can contact another chamber investor with a larger facility or the chamber will put you in touch with other investors interested in co-hosting the event. Or, the chamber will be happy to work with you in sponsoring a smaller networking group event with a more intimate environment, such as a Before or During Hours. Now, all of our investors have an equal chance to spotlight their business during a Business Before, During or After Hours.
